Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover Chapter 1314

Solomon was a little hesitant initially, but recalling what Akiko had said earlier and knowing that it was not appropriate for him, as a man, to insist in this situation, he finally agreed to it.

With that, Akiko took Ichika up to the hotel’s penthouse suite all by herself.

Bam!

The displeased Akiko kicked open the door with force even though she could have opened it with her hand.

Ichika, still a little tiddly and thus had been laying her head on Akiko’s shoulder, turned to look at her.

“Akiko, how could you be so rude?”

Rude? Akiko scoffed internally.

After dragging Ichika back to the suite, Akiko threw her onto the bed without cleaning her up.

“Have a good rest. I’m heading back now.”

“Huh?” Lying on the bed, Ichika turned to look at Akiko blearily. “No. I have to shower and change my clothes before I can sleep.”

“Shower and get changed?” No longer able to hold her emotions in, Akiko had a look of ridicule on her face. “Ms. Minamoto, you’ve touched alcohol today. If your family hears about it or even sees your drunken stupor, you’ll face severe punishment. I believe you don’t need me to educate you on the etiquette of aristocrats, right?”

“What?” Ichika, still lying on the bed, instantly freaked out upon hearing those words.

Since young, she had learned about manners and behavior, especially when in front of outsiders. That included avoiding alcohol and refraining from behaving too unceremoniously. Nonetheless, she had broken all her vows while at Hayes Residence today.

What should I do?

The young lady felt dejected even though she was still tipsy.

Right then, an idea popped up in Akiko’s mind after seeing the guilty look of Ichika.

“How about returning to Jetroina tomorrow, Ms. Minamoto? Rest assured, I won’t tell your family about it. As long as you agree to it, I’ll pretend that nothing happened today.”

“Really?” Ichika’s eyes lit up instantly.

However, that light soon faded away after she mulled over it for a short while.

She shook her head profusely. “No, I can’t return to Jetroina. My family sent me here for an arranged marriage. I have to stay here.” After a slight pause, she continued with her instructions, “It’s fine, don’t let it bother you. I’ll call my family tomorrow to apologize for what I’ve done today. For now, prepare some lukewarm water for me. I want to get washed. Oh yes, get me some fresh clothes and light up a scented candle too.”

Despite being drunk, she still spoke clearly and logically.

It was evident she was still clear about her identity and status versus that of the woman in front of her, which was why she would instruct the latter as though she was instructing the servants at home.

Akiko’s face turned red with anger.
